So really it is only going to be running tablet quality games with the built in Tegra? :O I expect the price to be very very accesible, maybe 200€?

So why did they make it so massive and ugly?

Sega called! They want their Dreamcast controller back :lol:

There's been news of the dock actually boosting performance to bump up the resolution, from a girl who made a lot of leaks that turned out to be true

I genuinely want this to succeed but I fear as always, 3rd party support will let it down and it will go into the baron wasteland.

3rd party developers seem to be scared of Nintendo's way forward in the market. Wii was all ports, Wii U was ports, Switch...probably more ports.

Would have liked to have seen an OLED screen and a £200 price tag.
Would be very interested to see what the battery life is like....
